The Oats SWindla.

The farmers of Pennsylvania have the
reputation of being very intelligent. Good
newspapers are published in all the great
agricultural counties of the State and in
the large cities in that and the adjoining
States. Is it possible that the ssPennsyl-
vania farmers do not read the newspapers
1t would seem so from the fact that a very
large number of them in the rich and pros
porous Cumberland valley have been
swindled out of a large amount of
money, as much as 100000, it is said, by
the Bohemian oats method
This method of swindling farmers has
been written up time and again, in about
all the newspapers in the country, during the
last two years, and it is rather remarkable
that there are intelligent farmers anywhere
who have not heard of it. A year or Sc
ago it attracted great deal of attention in
Ohio, and hundreds of farmers were swim.
died by it. The swindlers move from one
section of the country to another, and they
appear to meet with success wherever they

The Bohemian oats are no better, from all
accounts, than any other kind of oats, but

ers believe they are. They sell them at SIC
per bushel, and sign contracts to buy the
oat crops at Sc per bushel The farmers are
generally induced to take anywhere from
five to fifty bushels each, but the swindler:

The swindlers get the cash whenever they
can, but are not averse ito taking notes
which they find little difficulty in selling at
discount. If farmers read the newspapers
more generally they would not easily be

The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1887-06-06

ABOUT five years ago Mr.. Fekin one of the
Uganda missionaries, complained 10 Mtesa that
his majesty had not kept the missionary larder
well stocked, as he had agreed, and the mis-
slonaries were actually suffering for food A
happy thought struck the King He gave an
order to an attendant and in few minutes
eighteen buXom young women came marching
in with big baskets of bananas on their heads
Take these women for your wives, a." said Mtesa
They VIII dig in your garden, raise your food
and cook il. Take them and don't bother me
any more Send me the other men and | will
give them wives, too Now take your women
and 60" Mtesa was greatly enraged when the
poor missionary ventured to protest against
being married in this wholesale fashion He
told Mr.. Felkin that be and his fellows might
shift for themselves. They had hard time of

SPEAKING of the recent royal pageant at the
Peoples Palace at the Fast End of London, the
Pail Nal Gazette remarks that while the cere-
mony of laying foundation stone is one of the
most ridiculous that has ever been contrived by
human ingenuity, the Queen. whether from past
experience or recent coaching, discharged the
absurd duties in & business-like manner. First
she took the shining trowe and proceeded to
spread the mortar on the lower stone, quite
horrifying some l1des who cried 'tOh what
a shame! Why, she's scratching the silver "
But the right hand of majesty wavered not in its
duty. Then a great glass retort was placed In
her hand into which she dropped coins as deftly
as conJurer about TO perform a trick. the pa
pers followed the coins, the cap was put on the
retort, which was placed in the cavity The
episode Of the plummet followed, and then the
top stone was lowered and the deed was done
The crowd craned TO get a view of its sovereign
and the Archbshop's prayers were subjected TO
unseemly interruptions, such as: "Oh, Lord,
save Thy people" "Now, then, take your hat

Mr.. Montgomery has been over

swooped down on him like the
grand jury on the blind pigs. This
has made Mr.. Montgomery weary.
He has even gone so far as.to swear

Begging for Stamps.

There was young man stop
ping ut u West side lodging-h house
until recently who, according to
the New York Mail and express,
paid for his bed every night with
postage stamps. He had pructiced
this about a week or more when
the proprietor grew suspicious.
With II View to finding out just
where the fellow got the stamps,
the hotel man had him watched
and discovered that his lodger not
only paid for his bed with the lit
tie brown squares, but that he ate
at several restaurants where the
propr.etOrs accepted the stamps
in payment. After watching his
lodger for several days, and dis.
covering nothing that could ex-
plain his possession Of SO mary
postage stamps, the hotel man re-
fused to accept them in payment
for a bed unless the man could
satisfy him that they were not
stolen. The lodger demurred for
II while and then refused to talk
about the matter. Then the hotel
man threatened to hand him over
to the police, whereupon the man
after swearing the lanlOrd to se-
crecy, said:

Flesh Turned Into Stone.

Dakota is truely a marvellous
and wonderful country. Not only
wonderful in mineral and agricul-
tural resources, but it abounds in
geological formations that ,fforI
constant surprise and study for the
student in this most interesting
scienct. The Bad Lands located
seventy miles sutheast Of Rapid
City, have no equal on this conti-
ncnt as II receptacle for Petrifac-
tions of amphibi us animals. The
popularity of the soil transforms
flesh into stone, but this power is
mot only confined to the soil of the
bad lands, but exists in some To-
.calities in the Black Hills. A case
has just come to the knowledge of
your correspondent that has never
been made public, and proves that
many bodies that have been buried
in the Hills have turned to stone.
The case ut hand is that of a little
son of Mr.. Eugene Holcnmb, n
prominent citizen of Rapid City.
Some years ago the hoy died and
was buried in spot not set aside
for general burrying purposes.
When the city grew and GENE.
terry was selected, Mr.. HolcOmb
had large monument erected and
the departed disinterred. The fam
lily expected when the shovel of
the grave-digger reached the cas-
ket it would need replacing and
had made preparations to that end.
The coffin was reached, and as the
man endeavored to place q rope
underneath to twist it to the sur
face, he was surprised ut its great
weight. Thinking it was the mar.
row, contracted hole that reduced
his strength he made several more
efforts, but only moved it few
inches, and was compelled to call
for aid. Two men succeeded in
placing the rope about the casket,
and with Q hard pull it was brought
to the surface. An examination
followed, and upon the deceased
being revealed it was found that
the body had turned into solid rock
From q gentleman who was pres.
!ent and whose word can be relied
upon, It was learned that the pa-
rents easily recognizec the child.
The body had assumed a dark
brown color, the features slightly
shrunkep, and he compared it with
the appearance Of q mummy. The
eyebrows and hair were Of a light
hue, while the hands looked per-
feet. It was the most singular
sight he had ever witnessed and
only the sensitive feelings
OF the parents kept the matter
from the newspaper columns. The
body was again inferred and rests
peacefully IN the family lot.
The strange Transformation Of
this body Is not the only instance
recorded. The few number Of
dead removed has not afforded sn
opportunity to learn how common

Having raised the wages Of
miners s per cent, on the cost Of
mining, the coal combination
forthwith advanced the. price Of
coal 90 per cent, delivered in the
market. Where one cent is given
to the miner ten cents is taken
from the consumer. And this sort
of thing is encouraged and pro-
tected by the coal tariff.-Philadel-
